Up this week: Matrix Revolutions. Highlights: we get down on the concept of man and machine living together, considering Neo as Christ figure (complete with choir), talk religion vs. spirituality, discuss programmatic “limitations” (like Lionel Ritchie in the coat room) and what makes them important, note the tremendous bravery of soldiers who volunteer to enter harm’s way when they can’t shoot back, ponder the importance of the dock defense, question (with the help of a caller) how children are born in the Matrix. Next week we wrap up the Matrix arc with a discussion of the Animatrix and the rest of the Matrix EU.
